Just sold my 18' walk through and thinking of selling my tiller boat which I fish with mostly. But 12 hour days on a tiller when you get older is hard on the arm after awhile. I'm thinking of going to a side console. I'll miss my tiller. Tiller is a fisherman's boat. Best control back troll over a jigging spot, on target fishing, 2 motors at the back, 1 gas, 1 Elec, 1 hand operation, other hand on the rod. Sometime you have to do whats best.
